It's not crazy..believe me..they remember. I once raised a wild baby bluejay . Me and my ex separated and the bird (Mr. Blue) ended up 50 miles away with a friend. One day the lady forgot and had the window open and Mr Blue took off. I by this time had no idea what had happened to him and was just going on with my life. One day about 1 year later (trying not to cry ) I was telling someone in there backyard in the general area where he was originally raised about Mr Blue and down from the tree came Mr Blue!! He landed on my knee and was playing with my short strings (I had cut offs on at the time). I knew it was him because he lost a toe nail in a cage I had made him. He still remembered me after all that time! He took off finally, and I never saw him again. Maybe he just wanted to say thank you for rescuing him and say good bye one last time. So don't be surprised one day if your little bird comes back to say hello..
That really is an amazing story. That he would fly so far and be able to find his former home and say hello to you is truly amazing. I was hoping after traveling all that distance that he would stay
Beautiful incident.... It has brought tears to my eyes.. At the moment I am raising a baby pigeon which fell in my balcony Two months back ( maybe it was a week old when I found it) Its naughty and cute now I only hope ,after it flies off ,he will visit me now and then
You are so kind!!! I also adopted a baby pegion from a situation where he could die. I raised him by feeding rice and one day he flew away. I was so happy!!!
I'm raising one now. I had found a baby bird early Tuesday morning at 6 AM. Almost two weeks of taking care of him. I think I'll cry when his ability to fly and leave me. When that time comes, I hope he will remember me. I name him Angel.
Adorable! We rescued a baby dove a couple of years ago. We thought he was a goner. He was ice cold to the touch, barely alive. I put him between my palms and kept him there until he started moving. Soon, he was making little whistling noises and trying to sit up. So, we kept him for about three weeks, until he was strong and had all of his feathers. Then we gave him to a wild bird sanctuary (very traumatic for us!). I loved the way he demanded food by rapidly batting his wings. After raising him, I noticed that behavior in wild birds who had fledged from their nest but were still following their parents around and demanding food. I also saw a female sparrow do that in order to coax a male to mate with her.
I absolutely love birds. I have a jay that I raised this Spring and let it go free about two months ago. But it comes back every day. It follows me while I am in the garden or if I go for a walk. I leave water and some food outside now because the days are so hot. He really loves cherries 🍒 😊.
I looked after a baby sparrow for 3days..But I knew deep down in my heart he had to go to a proper wild bird farm..I brought him back from near death and gave him a chance in life. I work to long hours to give him the attention he need..I cryed for hours when I had to say goodbye.. But I'm glad I gave him love,warmth and care..Strange how something so beautiful can melt your heart and hurts to part with..I just rang the place he is cared for and they have informed me I done a great job and he is doing fine..Yes!!! Fly high beautiful..I love you.💞💞
Ohh so cute...you saved a life ,a beautiful gift of Almighty and raised him/her so nicely to grow stronger with your great effort , now after watching your videos i also wished if i also get a opportunity i would love to do that..may God showers His blessings on "Birdy". THANK YOU GOD BLESS YOU
How beautiful! Helping animals and birds is a wonderful thing. It changes our perspective on life. When we think how every day and night they need to find shelter, food and are constantly trying to stay safe. This is a lovely video.
I've always said that birds are angels, had many raised from eggs, they are lovely.. I'm glad you were able to experience these amazing creatures like Birdie
Your family did good by caring it when it needed the most and allowing it to fly away when it was ready, I know it must've been very hard for your family, but y'all did the right thing. Lots of happiness to your family.
I was overwhelmed with joy to see the cutest bonding of you with your birdy.I love it's name.Birdy.Love u dear.No words of appreciation to describe for this work n efforts u made to raise birdy.
Almost spiritual at the end like you were looking for his spirit out amongst the trees and I think you found it :) good job what a lovely animal! Thanks for sharing!
You did an awesome thing for this bird. Very unselfish too. You are to be praised and I am so glad you posted this and shared it with everyone. Wonderful job, beautiful. You have a wonderful family, and beautiful spirit to take such kind care of one of God's smallest creatures. Birds are very intelligent. I would not be surprised if he is near by when the season is right for him to be flocking in your neighborhood with his friends. We have different species of finches which fly in from Mexico and different places generally in the spring around March to April, depending on our weather here in Oregon. If it is too cold, they come late, if it is warm, they come early. It is a sign for us that spring has arrived. Thanks for sharing, I am bedridden much of the time, this made my day! Bless you!
Thank you for sharing. What a neat thing to see the stages. We did the same thing with a white wing dove rescued from being run over by a car. After two months, the sweet little thing flew strong, back in the wild again. Tears of joy 😂
Thank you very much for posting this video. It was well done, very informative, and helped a lot. Hope Birdy is loving the open skies and eventually found a mate.
Thanks, because it wasn't easy. I had to take time off just to be able to feed it all the time. It was like a baby. My teenage son took over when I had to go out.
We just rescued a fledgling blue Tit. My kids have fallen in love with it and called it LEO. Having a hard time feeding it but thanks to this video I will be trying new technics to try and get it to feed tonight.
Or Alice Wolman, and fend off all by himself? both parents teach their chicks how to survive in the wild, how to find food, how to spot predators, etc. Highly likely this bird didn't survive very long, of course they're exceptions. I would've kept it.
Still, I think it's wonderful that you let him go. It's the same as letting your own siblings go; they can crash in a car accident or in the Himalayas...but you have to let go. Thanks for sharing this
Or Alice Wolman. I think it was the best thing to do. I saw him a few times after he was freed for about a week. The European Green Finch lives for about 13 years. I was happy to give him a second chance.
Alvaro Quesada you are very negative. It's very sad to look at the world that way.... I felt I had to give this bird a second chance at life when I found him, and I did. These birds leave the nest at 14 days. Very young. Their parents only feed them and then they leave them on their own. They don't teach them about predators or how to get food. It's a natural instinct. They don't teach them how to fly either. Birdy knew how to fly all on its own.... I didn't teach him. He just knew. Alvaro, you have to see the positive in things and try to help when you can. I believe life gives you back what you give to others. And I'm a very happy person. Blessed to see how a little effort can change someone's life, or save a little creature and give it a second chance. Life can beautiful, but it's up to you to make it that way.
or wolman, no it's not good that she let him go..that poor birdy is dead , why do i say that because a captive bird growing up and fed by a human doesn't know how to forge for food on their own....biggest mistake a non bird expert would do..if you ever find a lost bird then decides to rescue it please,"DON"T EVER LET IT GO FREE LIKE THAT''...his chance of making in this world is ZER0....when they're with thier parents they were taught what's food and where to look , predictors etc...only inexperience person would say the thing you would say..go ask any bird rescue place if birds raised from a baby would make it in our world, when they have no clue where to find food?!
What a wonderful job you did and good that you let Birdy be a bird .Minus flight they are prisoners .I feel sure Birdy is somewhere in Bird freedom land .Birds do change our life for ever .Due to a canada goose rescue I became vegan and see all birds for what they are , spectacular and absolutely beautiful .Hold on to your videos and memories Birds change us and wow it is magic :)👍🎶💚
I found a dove egg and it hatched in my hand! I’ve had him for 4 days now and he’s very crazy. I feed him water with crushed seeds but strained so it’s just seed water and cooked egg yolk. He loves it! On day 5/ when he opens his eyes I will mix in some small seeds with his formula and start making it thicker and adding more ingredients such as dog food crushed finely and crushed oatmeal. He’s doing good so far but it never stops me from worrying that one day he may not make it through the night.i hope he does good!
Awww this is awesome! I just rescued a baby sparrow and named it "Birdy" too!! :) Hopefully, we'll make it through our first night together and he'll be able to fly free in a few weeks too!! :)
VlogGrrr I rescued a baby sparrow when it had no feathers. been 5 weeks, he is so much bigger, so many feathers and active. When should I let him feed himself?
Tahishaly Fontanez He should be reaching that point soon at about 6 weeks or so. Continue to feed him how you've been doing but start dropping some of his food on the floor right in front of him and let him peck at it for himself. Then pick it up and feed it to him. After a couple of days he'll actually peck at it and pick it up himself. Continue to feed him yourself but do this exercise as well and introduce a bowl of food in his cage.
I remember when I was young on the farm, my dad brought home a baby quail with a hurt wing. He taped his wing up and we kept him for a couple weeks and then let him go.
I have rescued a baby Willow Warbler at the moment and I totally understand what you mean about how these dear little birds who trust you and grow in front of your eyes make such an impact on your life. My little bird is a fly eater so I have to train him to eat flies and I am doing this right now. I also know that my bird will have to be strong enough to migrate in 8 weeks time and this part is the part I am worried about for him.
I'm getting all emotional over here. I would have cried when the bird flew away. I get so attached that I would be constantly worrying about it and wondering if it was ok. You did a great job on the video and taking care of it. 🙏
Such a beautiful story...i remember growing up an seeing many many greenfinches, but sadly their numbers have declined here in the west of Ireland, havent see one in many years..not sure why that is..well done 😉
Thank you ! Thank you for being a human that gives me hope for this world ! And thank you for taking care of this wonderful little being ! Yesterday we found a little sparrow here , first we thought he was dead, but he just was next to street and not moving ! We took him home and kept him warm since as outside its cold and down to 20 degrees minus ! Seems he can not fly ! Not sure why, he seems old enough, and maybe his right foot seems hurt ! :( I would love to help and checked for a vet but nobody here ! I am living in china and sadly they do not care much aboput birds, only if they eat them ! I feel a bit helpless as i want to help and not sure how so checking videos online ! Do you have any advice on how to get him to eat anything ? Thanks
Thank you very much... It was very hard. I know he wasn't with us very long, but I cared for him 24/7. He very quickly became part of the family. In a way he was our baby. But even with ones own children there comes a time that you just have to let them fly free and find their way in life...
I had a similar story with a sparrow. It’s my dream to have the bird come fly back to my house to say hello every now and then. The bird who doesn’t forget the person who saved his life ...
hi dear thanks for your video love it i love birds and animals alot . i think should keep it at home was better and he was safe kanaries which are inside house they are not good flighers and they will be alone outside too and as u know there are very dangerous birds . anyways that was kind of you god bless you .
Thank you very much. I did what I thought was best.... I would of loved to keep him, but he really wanted to fly free. One day he hurt himself with the cieling. He wasn't ment to be in a cage. He was ment to fly free..... But I have a story for you.... My husband's aunt had a Canary she had bought in a store as a baby and one day it escaped his cage when they were cleaning it. Everyone was devastated thinking it was surely dead... But....about one year later, the Canary came back, with a girl Canary... True story. Happenned in Toulon, France just a few years back.
Thank you very much for helping the bird. But Im just wondering, is it wise to let go a home breeded bird to the wild? Will it know how to search for food as it was used to be fed? Will ig know to protect it self? Will it find a group of birds to live with? From what i see with cats brought up in homes with humans and abanded in streets, they still afraid of street and other cats, they cant compete with street cats to get food ,and they still stick on the houses doors and try to be with humans. Maybe birds are different? Just asking
Good video....but when I got a little older, I need to know how often to feed baby bird throughout not just infant age. I rescued a baby boy Eastern Bluebird.
I do have adopted 1 sparrow baby i wish i could keep him/her for my whole life but i cant and i an think to make my guys after 2 week He/she is with me since last week #peace #happy 😊
I just "adopted" a sparrow 2 days ago. Hes was estimated 5 days old when i found him in a windy thunderstorm, and near death. Ive published several videos of him and his progress the last couple of days. I sincerely hope he can live a happy and fruitful life. If you have any suggestions please pass them on. His wellbeing is my focus. Thank you and bless your hearts.
@@maevaedwards, hes great! Hes actually sleeping on my chest right now. Turns out hes a Grackle, i brought him a big cage off Amazon. This little fella has helped me almost as much as I've helped him.❤
@@pigpen3499 isn't it amazing. I have always had cats and dogs and never gave birds much thought. But when I found Birdy it was awesome. He was like my baby. I would have kept him if I'd have thought he was happy, but he wasn't so I let him go. Cried for over a month. It was so strange how attached I had become to him.... Good for you. I'm so glad you share a bond. ❤
@@maevaedwards, Ive always been a dog person myself. Never in a million years would I have done this, but something came over me that day and i couldn't leave him. Im pretty sure hes imprinted on me and it wouldn't work out well for him if he was let go. Ill do whatever I have to do to ensure his wellbeing. I love the little guy 🤗😍
Hi a hot water bag is a plastic bag especially made to hold water. It must be placed close to the bird but not too close because too much temperature can kill the bird.
i have rescued a robin egg ( it is about to hatch ) and i have done quite a lot of research but i want to make sure i get it from someone who has somewhat experience. do you know how i could care for a newborn? i’m sure it is similar to caring for a fledgling but i want to make sure he gets the best chance at life possible. ❤️ thank you for helping this fella btw
Hi, wow, well I think feeding comes innate to birds so as long as you start feeding it when its born with the formula I have in my post I believe that it will have a big chance of surviving. Just remember to keep it warm and to feed it every 15 minutes for the first few weeks. Mine was only about 3-5 days old so I think that it will open it's beak and once it feeds for the first time, it will continue doing so until it is full grown.
We have a bird nest very close to the ground, one day I looked in it, and found a mummy bluetit sitting on eggs. Our bird bath fell over because of the wind a couple days later. The mum and dad had abandoned their babies. So I soaked dog food in warm water and added a bit of sugar, then fed it to the babies on a tiny spoon. I got a screen wiper (the size of my palm) and put it on the radiator. I then put the warm fabric on top of the what looked like 6-8 baby bluetits. We are thinking about bringing them inside our home
Please help i found 3 baby nestlings and theyre breathing the smallest doesn't look to well and there all very weak they only eat and sleep what could i do to make them better i couldn't find a nest i feed them mashed strawberries and their poop isnt how its supposed to be
This video is very useful. Could you mount another with Italian text to help many Italians who love birds and who do not know how to wean them? Thank you
I've got four baby birds rn. I think something killed the mother because I was hearing them chirp loudly for about two days and when I went near them I didn't get a "get away warning from the mother" (a mother never leaves her babies for long) so I started feeding them and then on a stormy night I brought them in my house (a tornado was coming) and I've decided to raise them myself. They are about 5 days old or so rn. Talk about some work. Feeding 4 baby birds every hour or two is a lot or work!
I was in NYC a wk. after 9-11 with a cousin in summerhaven park, a raven or some kind of big blackbird flew down to us a said hello, hi, how are you doing, then it said something about food. We couldn't understand much of what he was/she was saying, didn't have any food, and feeding birds is illegal in NYC, so we didn't feed him. Then he told us to fuck off, and flew away! Another time; a blackbird in the same park brought us a metal washer and i think it was a paper clip. We couldn't figure out why, but it seemed as if they were trying to say something to us. Years later i watched some documentaries on ravens, starlings, and crows; they learn to speak, and are very intelligent for a wild bird. Metal objects are gifts of appreciation or thanks. It is said that small, shiny, objects are especially a token of thanks for something. I can't think of why a bird would be thankful to us, we stopped the car to get out to stretch a while. It is a very good feeling to know that at least some wild animals in nature appreciate you!
I got to the part where you said he told you to "fuck off" and I sprayed my coffee everywhere 😂😂. I'm still not sure if your whole comment is a joke or not. It's hilarious either way!
I have always raised baby birds of all kinds and the formula I have found that works best having spoken to avian vets is dry cat food, and liquid calcium being the main two ingredients. Of course you soften the dry cat food in water, but never forget the liquid calcium. That is very important for all birds of all ages. Not saying what you are doing here is wrong. Just putting out what I did when I raised baby birds.
It's not crazy..believe me..they remember. I once raised a wild baby bluejay . Me and my ex separated and the bird (Mr. Blue) ended up 50 miles away with a friend. One day the lady forgot and had the window open and Mr Blue took off. I by this time had no idea what had happened to him and was just going on with my life. One day about 1 year later (trying not to cry ) I was telling someone in there backyard in the general area where he was originally raised about Mr Blue and down from the tree came Mr Blue!! He landed on my knee and was playing with my short strings (I had cut offs on at the time). I knew it was him because he lost a toe nail in a cage I had made him. He still remembered me after all that time! He took off finally, and I never saw him again. Maybe he just wanted to say thank you for rescuing him and say good bye one last time. So don't be surprised one day if your little bird comes back to say hello..
very sweet of u wish all people was kind for birds and anilmals and also each other.
My bird escape and never came back :(
That really is an amazing story. That he would fly so far and be able to find his former home and say hello to you is truly amazing. I was hoping after traveling all that distance that he would stay
Beautiful incident.... It has brought tears to my eyes..
At the moment I am raising a baby pigeon which fell in my balcony
Two months back ( maybe it was a week old when I found it)
Its naughty and cute now
I only hope ,after it flies off ,he will visit me now and then
They will hope and wait for it all their life , I think )
If he could talk, we would have definitely thanked you, thank for your kindness.
no. he would say "me and my bird army will spare you when the time comes"
Go on Birdy, you were born to a life on free wings, without chains to hold back your heart.
Love this concept
You are so kind!!! I also adopted a baby pegion from a situation where he could die. I raised him by feeding rice and one day he flew away. I was so happy!!!
I'm raising one now. I had found a baby bird early Tuesday morning at 6 AM. Almost two weeks of taking care of him. I think I'll cry when his ability to fly and leave me. When that time comes, I hope he will remember me. I name him Angel.
Enough to make a grown man cry 🥺
He was so blessed to have you

God I love birds! You did a great job!! I was moved by this video. Thank you!
Bernie,
Butterflies,
Birds and bees are all you need.
Your family did good by caring it when it needed the most and allowing it to fly away when it was ready, I know it must've been very hard for your family, but y'all did the right thing. Lots of happiness to your family.
It's lovely story, I couldn't help crying in the end. Thanks for sharing.
this was so sad. But it was good that u let him free. We love you Birdy! now I want to save a baby bird
Yeah and right when he was getting tame too.... so cute
I was overwhelmed with joy to see the cutest bonding of you with your birdy.I love it's name.Birdy.Love u dear.No words of appreciation to describe for this work n efforts u made to raise birdy.

Der kleine Kerl ist sooo niedlich und hübsch. Ohne euch wäre er tot. Schön, dass es Menschen wie euch gibt!
Yo también encontré uno de 12 días y ahora tiene 2 años lo crié con papilla, me encantan los animales ❤
Thank you for taking care of the birdy fellow. We are so fragile when we are young.
As for me, I've decided to stay with my human family forever :]
What a beautiful story...i was bit emotional at the end but at the same time was happy. God bless you☺🐥
God bless you too!
You did the right thing. No animal should ever live his/her life in a cage.
We've raised some small birds like this. All of them left us when they were ready to live free. Beautiful story

It's a wisful feeling, isn't it? Watching them fly away. I cried, I was so sad to let him go, but it was what was best for him...
well done, you are a great person for keeping him alive.
Thank you very much for posting this video. It was well done, very informative, and helped a lot. Hope Birdy is loving the open skies and eventually found a mate.
No, I'm not crying - I have something in my eye.
Your dedication to that bird was amazing.
Thanks, because it wasn't easy. I had to take time off just to be able to feed it all the time. It was like a baby. My teenage son took over when I had to go out.
awesome, maeva. you and your family showed amazing dedication and love. i'm sure that your special friend remembers you all on some level...
Thanks. You are so kind.
you nurtured him well & later you let him go..salute to you..May Allah bless you...Allahu Akbar.
This was amazing to watch!!! 'you are very beautiful and kind, in what you did for this little bird' 'Well done' xxxx
Aww, thanks!
We just rescued a fledgling blue Tit. My kids have fallen in love with it and called it LEO. Having a hard time feeding it but thanks to this video I will be trying new technics to try and get it to feed tonight.
YAY! Good luck. Hope Leo grows into a beautiful happy bird.
Thank you.
You are great guys for taking care and then releasing him. Stay happy.
Beautiful! so good of you to let him go...

How did it go with the dove?
Thank u this really helped me raise an abandoned baby bird I found, his name is Desmond.
So glad I was able to help 😊
What a labor of love. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Wow this is so beautiful ! Thanks for posting this video !
Omg how freekin cute is that!
Awww this is awesome! I just rescued a baby sparrow and named it "Birdy" too!! :) Hopefully, we'll make it through our first night together and he'll be able to fly free in a few weeks too!! :)
VlogGrrr, how did it go?
Maeva Edwards
It's going great! I've got updates on my channel. He'll hopefully be ready to go free in a week or so!
VlogGrrr, so happy to hear that.
😊
VlogGrrr I rescued a baby sparrow when it had no feathers. been 5 weeks, he is so much bigger, so many feathers and active. When should I let him feed himself?

He should be reaching that point soon at about 6 weeks or so. Continue to feed him how you've been doing but start dropping some of his food on the floor right in front of him and let him peck at it for himself. Then pick it up and feed it to him. After a couple of days he'll actually peck at it and pick it up himself. Continue to feed him yourself but do this exercise as well and introduce a bowl of food in his cage.
thank you! i recently found a baby bird that was abandoned by its mother and this is really helping me!
I remember when I was young on the farm, my dad brought home a baby quail with a hurt wing. He taped his wing up and we kept him for a couple weeks and then let him go.
I have rescued a baby Willow Warbler at the moment and I totally understand what you mean about how these dear little birds who trust you and grow in front of your eyes make such an impact on your life. My little bird is a fly eater so I have to train him to eat flies and I am doing this right now. I also know that my bird will have to be strong enough to migrate in 8 weeks time and this part is the part I am worried about for him.
I'm sure you will do a great job. Birds are smart little fellows. They learn fast.
when he walks he reminds me of dinosaurs era wow he so historic bird wow . thank you for your kindness 🙏
I'm getting all emotional over here. I would have cried when the bird flew away. I get so attached that I would be constantly worrying about it and wondering if it was ok. You did a great job on the video and taking care of it. 🙏
Just adorable😄 Good parents👍💟
Well done you, greetings from Yorkshire England
Just discovered your video today. such a beautiful story.
Thanks :)
Such a beautiful story...i remember growing up an seeing many many greenfinches, but sadly their numbers have declined here in the west of Ireland, havent see one in many years..not sure why that is..well done 😉
Thank you ! Thank you for being a human that gives me hope for this world ! And thank you for taking care of this wonderful little being ! Yesterday we found a little sparrow here , first we thought he was dead, but he just was next to street and not moving ! We took him home and kept him warm since as outside its cold and down to 20 degrees minus ! Seems he can not fly ! Not sure why, he seems old enough, and maybe his right foot seems hurt ! :( I would love to help and checked for a vet but nobody here ! I am living in china and sadly they do not care much aboput birds, only if they eat them ! I feel a bit helpless as i want to help and not sure how so checking videos online ! Do you have any advice on how to get him to eat anything ? Thanks
Very well done. You must have big hearts.
Awwww what a beatuful cute wittle babaayyyy,😊😊

Ty so much ch u have a baby bird with me right now! It’s a dove and I needed help Ty
Very Cute Baby Bird.
He is Grow Well With Kindness Ohner By
Look After.👍👍👍
Must've been hard to watch him fly away from you.
But you and your family did a good job. God bless you
Thank you very much... It was very hard. I know he wasn't with us very long, but I cared for him 24/7. He very quickly became part of the family. In a way he was our baby. But even with ones own children there comes a time that you just have to let them fly free and find their way in life...
Good that you let him go free even when it hurts ....!! Good Job all!!...
one of the most beautiful experiences in life
Hermoso sentimiento de amor!! Amor y libertad!!
I had a similar story with a sparrow. It’s my dream to have the bird come fly back to my house to say hello every now and then. The bird who doesn’t forget the person who saved his life ...
It was my dream too. Unfortunately, it didn't happen for me...
Heart touching... This is call care... 🙏🙏🙏
respect be happy God Will be Reward U ..........Love fOm pakistan
hi dear thanks for your video love it i love birds and animals alot . i think should keep it at home was better and he was safe
kanaries which are inside house they are not good flighers and they will be alone outside too and as u know there are very dangerous birds . anyways that was kind of you god bless you .
Thank you very much. I did what I thought was best.... I would of loved to keep him, but he really wanted to fly free. One day he hurt himself with the cieling. He wasn't ment to be in a cage. He was ment to fly free..... But I have a story for you.... My husband's aunt had a Canary she had bought in a store as a baby and one day it escaped his cage when they were cleaning it. Everyone was devastated thinking it was surely dead... But....about one year later, the Canary came back, with a girl Canary... True story. Happenned in Toulon, France just a few years back.
hi dear thanks for your story its very nice hope ur canary will come one day too . if didnt come also u really did a great job. thanks
Than you.
He would surely comeback one day
Heart touching ! Great work by u
Thank you very much for helping the bird. But Im just wondering, is it wise to let go a home breeded bird to the wild? Will it know how to search for food as it was used to be fed? Will ig know to protect it self? Will it find a group of birds to live with?
From what i see with cats brought up in homes with humans and abanded in streets, they still afraid of street and other cats, they cant compete with street cats to get food ,and they still stick on the houses doors and try to be with humans.
Maybe birds are different? Just asking
Good video....but when I got a little older, I need to know how often to feed baby bird throughout not just infant age. I rescued a baby boy Eastern Bluebird.
I do have adopted 1 sparrow baby i wish i could keep him/her for my whole life but i cant and i an think to make my guys after 2 week
He/she is with me since last week
#peace
#happy 😊
I just "adopted" a sparrow 2 days ago. Hes was estimated 5 days old when i found him in a windy thunderstorm, and near death. Ive published several videos of him and his progress the last couple of days. I sincerely hope he can live a happy and fruitful life. If you have any suggestions please pass them on. His wellbeing is my focus. Thank you and bless your hearts.
You did the right thing. I hope he's doing okay. Please let me know.
@@maevaedwards, hes great! Hes actually sleeping on my chest right now. Turns out hes a Grackle, i brought him a big cage off Amazon. This little fella has helped me almost as much as I've helped him.❤
@@pigpen3499 isn't it amazing. I have always had cats and dogs and never gave birds much thought. But when I found Birdy it was awesome. He was like my baby. I would have kept him if I'd have thought he was happy, but he wasn't so I let him go. Cried for over a month. It was so strange how attached I had become to him.... Good for you. I'm so glad you share a bond. ❤
@@maevaedwards, Ive always been a dog person myself. Never in a million years would I have done this, but something came over me that day and i couldn't leave him. Im pretty sure hes imprinted on me and it wouldn't work out well for him if he was let go. Ill do whatever I have to do to ensure his wellbeing. I love the little guy 🤗😍
Bird lovers Where are you
😁
Right wit you
This is sooo cute. It makes me sad I have to release my rescues soon too. 3 little birds 💕
I just found a lonely bird and I’m watching this video on how to take care of it, is the hot water bag just...hot water in a bag?
Hi a hot water bag is a plastic bag especially made to hold water. It must be placed close to the bird but not too close because too much temperature can kill the bird.
Bird of all kinds are the coolest nature is beautiful and so rewarding
i have rescued a robin egg ( it is about to hatch ) and i have done quite a lot of research but i want to make sure i get it from someone who has somewhat experience. do you know how i could care for a newborn? i’m sure it is similar to caring for a fledgling but i want to make sure he gets the best chance at life possible. ❤️ thank you for helping this fella btw
Hi, wow, well I think feeding comes innate to birds so as long as you start feeding it when its born with the formula I have in my post I believe that it will have a big chance of surviving. Just remember to keep it warm and to feed it every 15 minutes for the first few weeks. Mine was only about 3-5 days old so I think that it will open it's beak and once it feeds for the first time, it will continue doing so until it is full grown.
We have a bird nest very close to the ground, one day I looked in it, and found a mummy bluetit sitting on eggs. Our bird bath fell over because of the wind a couple days later. The mum and dad had abandoned their babies. So I soaked dog food in warm water and added a bit of sugar, then fed it to the babies on a tiny spoon. I got a screen wiper (the size of my palm) and put it on the radiator. I then put the warm fabric on top of the what looked like 6-8 baby bluetits. We are thinking about bringing them inside our home
Aww, you are a good person.
Ok so I guess everyone calls their lost baby bird birdie... lmao. Baby birds are so cute.
We need more people like you.
Lovely video! Thanks for sharing.
so cool. i HAVE ONE RIGHT NOW BUT HE IS IN NO CAGE HE GO ANYWHERE HE WANTS EVEN OUTSIDE ITS A SONG SPARROW. SO AWESOME VIDEO.
This bird is soo cute i like baby and big birds too😄👍😊😍😄🐣
We love you birdy and even love u more for saving him
Thank you for help and free him
Please help i found 3 baby nestlings and theyre breathing the smallest doesn't look to well and there all very weak they only eat and sleep what could i do to make them better i couldn't find a nest i feed them mashed strawberries and their poop isnt how its supposed to be
This video is very useful. Could you mount another with Italian text to help many Italians who love birds and who do not know how to wean them? Thank you
I've got four baby birds rn. I think something killed the mother because I was hearing them chirp loudly for about two days and when I went near them I didn't get a "get away warning from the mother" (a mother never leaves her babies for long) so I started feeding them and then on a stormy night I brought them in my house (a tornado was coming) and I've decided to raise them myself. They are about 5 days old or so rn. Talk about some work. Feeding 4 baby birds every hour or two is a lot or work!
I was in NYC a wk. after 9-11 with a cousin in summerhaven park, a raven or some kind of big blackbird flew down to us a said hello, hi, how are you doing, then it said something about food. We couldn't understand much of what he was/she was saying, didn't have any food, and feeding birds is illegal in NYC, so we didn't feed him. Then he told us to fuck off, and flew away! Another time; a blackbird in the same park brought us a metal washer and i think it was a paper clip. We couldn't figure out why, but it seemed as if they were trying to say something to us. Years later i watched some documentaries on ravens, starlings, and crows; they learn to speak, and are very intelligent for a wild bird. Metal objects are gifts of appreciation or thanks. It is said that small, shiny, objects are especially a token of thanks for something. I can't think of why a bird would be thankful to us, we stopped the car to get out to stretch a while. It is a very good feeling to know that at least some wild animals in nature appreciate you!
I got to the part where you said he told you to "fuck off" and I sprayed my coffee everywhere 😂😂. I'm still not sure if your whole comment is a joke or not. It's hilarious either way!
Beautiful story!
I have always raised baby birds of all kinds and the formula I have found that works best having spoken to avian vets is dry cat food, and liquid calcium being the main two ingredients. Of course you soften the dry cat food in water, but never forget the liquid calcium. That is very important for all birds of all ages. Not saying what you are doing here is wrong. Just putting out what I did when I raised baby birds.
God has a special place for those that help the helpless.
